Explanation

US cups convert to grams by multiplying with the verified 314.7 g/cup density derived from the US cup (236.588 mL) definition and the liquid’s grams-per-milliliter ratio.

Use the calculator to translate recipe cups into grams while keeping the same density that powers the milliliter and fluid ounce families.

Rich simple syrup (2:1) uses 1.33 g/mL in this dataset. That makes it 33% heavier by volume than water at the 1 g/mL reference. On the same basis, one US cup is about 314.7 g and one US fluid ounce is about 39.33 g.

Sugar concentration and temperature can noticeably change how this viscous liquid pours and how much a measured volume weighs. These figures describe a reference conversion, not a guarantee for every brand, recipe, serving temperature, or production batch.

Evidence status for Rich simple syrup (2:1): medium-confidence. Dataset note: 2:1 sugar-to-water syrup density approximation.

Methodology

Rich simple syrup (2:1) density evidence

Rich simple syrup (2:1) uses 1.33 g/mL in this dataset. Confidence: medium. Source basis: 2:1 sugar-to-water syrup density approximation.

Evidence status: reference-recorded. The source note is recorded; this does not certify every preparation or measurement condition.

Brand formulation, alcohol or sugar concentration, carbonation, and serving temperature can change the weight of a measured volume. Use this value as a documented reference rather than a producer specification.
